Questions about ensuite installation in Wiltshire
How noisy are macerators?
Modern units are quieter than older ones but still audible. We use them only where gravity drainage is not possible and fit them to reduce noise.
Can an ensuite go anywhere?
It needs a route for waste water. Gravity drainage is best; where that is not possible, a macerator or pump can work. We check at the survey.
Do you carry out ensuite installation across Wiltshire?
Yes, across the whole of Wiltshire, including Swindon, Salisbury, Trowbridge.
Who licenses HMOs in Wiltshire?
HMOs in Wiltshire are licensed by the local council for the address. Where an area has several councils, each runs its own licensing and planning policies.
